TL;DR - The current image color of the Santa Cruz espresso on the site does not match the product (Dec 16, 2015). If this gets fixed, feel free to remove this review.

My first experience with Crocs was awesome. Picked up some black Athen flip flips and a pair of dark charcoal Santa Cruz. These lasted me for years and were the best investments in shoes I've ever made.

When it came to replace them I looked online and popped the black Athen's into my cart and then headed to the Santa Cruz page. The charcoal color wasn't listed but I noticed the "espresso" color they had listed was exactly the same as what I had so I added them to the cart and checked out.

When the package arrived I was so excited to try them out. As I opened the box and pulled out the shoes I became emotionally disorientated from the combination of excitement and anticipation to severe disappointment and disbelief. "This is not what I ordered" I thought staring

I immediately checked to make sure I ordered the right color - yup, it says "espresso". I logged back onto the site and looked at the Santa Cruz espresso shoe - it was exactly like the dark charcoal color of my old pair of Santa Cruz.

"What's going on?!" I thought. The ugly brown doesn't even exit on their website. I was putting together a bunch of screen shots to document and send Crocs to get this fixed. But where was this ugly brown coming from? I clicked the video almost on accident... BOOM! There it is in all its horribly ugly browness.... That is not what I ordered. I ordered the nice dark charcoal color that someone labeled as "espresso".

I'm currently in the process of returning the brown shoes. Please - updated the site images to match product inventory. This will decrease your returns.

Now, if you're read this long then you may be like me who has to read lots of reviews while doing your research for online shopping. I really hate that I have to return these since I had been waiting so long, but that's not the shoes fault.

If you're contemplating getting a pair - do it! Crocs are awesome. I only wish I didn't have to return these.

PS Let me know when you have the beautiful dark charcoal shoes in-stock.

Thanks

Peruse the reviews and examine the many comments that refer to the durability of the shoe at the big toe. I've purchased this shoe four times, as it's ridiculously comfortable, but I cannot do so anymore. The last Santa Cruz shoes that I purchased didn't last six months. Every single time, I've had one shoe (not both, oddly) wear out at the big toe. If I walked miles per day in them, over the course of several months, I could potentially understand that the shoes might not last. I do not. I typically use the shoes to walk around the house or the yard. I do find it telling that one of the two template "con" choices is "wear out quickly." Crocs apparently knows of the issue, yet seemingly relies upon fools like me to purchase four pairs before they finally learn their lesson. As I stated, the shoe is comfortable, even with the relatively new replacement sole (not as comfortable as the last one, but it lasts and is not as prone to odor. Crocs did a great job with this.) I do not like to simply complain without offering a solution to my complaints. However; the complaint, and its solution, is simple and self-explanatory. I cannot purchase again until I see that they have redesigned this. It really wouldn't take much time, much money, or much thought to do the right thing. I can only expect that it would serve the company well to treat one of its leading brands with the respect it initially built with similar quality and a fair price.

Most comfortable model. This is my third pair. I found only one issue with getting hole at great toe area on my first pair. Customer service have sent replacement. I appreciate this kind of service. I hope that Crocks will introduce new models based on this platform, perhaps more dressy. People have different needs, but this one is definitely worth getting.

I wear these and I am a lady that wears a size 8 women's shoe, and the men's size 7 fits me fine, maybe a little roomy but perfect with thick socks. These are so lightweight and cushiony, I love-love-love them :)

Thank you for your inquiry. So this specific shoe is considered our "relaxed" fit. Which is neither narrow or wide. Just right in the middle. You can find the type of fit of each shoe under the sizes on the website.

Q:

Are these slip resistant? I am looking for a slid resistant shoe that is closed toe and closed heel for work. I work on waxed tile floor which can be very slippery when wet.

This style does not feature special slip-resistant tread. We do have a collection of work shoes that feature CrocsLock tread, which provides slip-resistance that exceeds industry standards. Please note that while they are slip resistant, they are not completely slip proof. Please use general caution as you would in any other shoe. You can see those styles here (the Specialist is a work shoes but does not feature the slip-resistant tread): http://www.crocs.com/c/shop-by/activity/work-shoes

Q:

As a woman I like the men's style better...like the "worn" look...would they be to wide for a woman?
